Navodaya Vidyalaya Samiti runs the prestigious network of Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya (JNVs), which are among the most respected government residential schools in India. These schools were established with the aim of providing quality modern education to talented students, especially from rural areas, completely free of cost. Today, Navodaya Vidyalayas are known for their academic excellence, discipline, and holistic student development. 📚
Navodaya Vidyalayas follow the CBSE curriculum and provide education from Class 6 to Class 12. Students are selected through the Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya Selection Test (JNVST), which is conducted every year for admission mainly in Class 6 and sometimes in Class 9 and Class 11 through lateral entry. The selection process is merit-based and transparent, ensuring equal opportunity for deserving students across the country.
